Tim is a total mystery to me. I don't really like the idea that the kid is winning cy youngs this early in his career in a time when we don't need him to be this good. I mean, who sustains what he just accomplished? Pedro? Sure. Oswalt? He's still good, but not nearly as dominant.

Sign him to a long term deal and cross your fingers, I guess.

It's like they said before... he had doubts because he's so tiny. The doubters for his durability for a season were shut up... but how about for a whole career? We'll see... and hope.

I think he's also so valuable because he takes some of the pressure off of Cain and distracts some from Zito's contract. =)
